LINEMAN/LINEWOMAN EXPERIENCES
With 220 journeyman teams and 290 apprentices competing at this year's International Lineman's Rodeo in Kansas, getting to the podium wasn't an easy feat. But the Southern California Edison group - with 10 teams and 10 apprentices competing - took home several trophies, including first and second place in the Journeyman Hurtman Rescue and third place in the overall Journeyman Investor-Owned Utilities category.
A journeyman lineman or linewoman is responsible for the installation and maintenance of power lines and equipment, including system repairs due to bad weather. Gonzalo Garcia didn’t know anything about being an SCE journeyman lineman until he started trade school in 2007 to be a high-voltage electrician.
